Definitions
- the invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the invention also relates to an assembly of such a high-pressure discharge lamp and a reflector.
- High-pressure discharge lamps ranging from 35 to 150 W have become dominant in lighting retail applications. Trends have emerged which create positive conditions for range extensions towards lower lumen packages and/or lower wattages. Lower light levels are being used, for instance in exclusive shops, focusing the light on the goods instead of flooding the area. End users in the market become more and more interested in a uniform quality of the light and would prefer to employ high-pressure discharge lamps instead of halogen lamps for the low- lumen packages and accent lighting.
- high-pressure discharge lamps of the kind mentioned in the opening paragraph either have a discharge vessel with a ceramic wall or have a quartz glass discharge vessel. Such high-pressure discharge lamps are widely used in practice and combine a high luminous efficacy with favorable color properties.
- the discharge vessel of the lamp contains one or several metal halides in addition to Hg and a rare gas filling.
- a ceramic wall of a discharge vessel in the present description and claims is understood to be a wall made from one of the following materials: monocrystalline metal oxide (for example sapphire), translucent densely sintered polycrystalline metal oxide (for example A1 2 0 3 , YAG), and translucent densely sintered polycrystalline metal nitride (for example A1N).
- monocrystalline metal oxide for example sapphire
- translucent densely sintered polycrystalline metal oxide for example A1 2 0 3 , YAG
- translucent densely sintered polycrystalline metal nitride for example A1N
- a lamp of the kind mentioned in the opening paragraph is known from the English abstract of JP-A 04 002 035.
- the known discharge lamp comprises a discharge vessel and current supply conductors supporting the discharge vessel while installed projectively at a lamp base of an insulating material.
- An outer envelope or outer bulb of which one end is left open is fixed to the lamp base enclosing the discharge vessel and the current supply conductors.
- a disadvantage of the known high-pressure discharge lamp is that the service life of the discharge lamp is below the desired level.
- a high-pressure discharge lamp of the kind mentioned in the opening paragraph for this purpose comprises: an outer envelope in which a discharge vessel is arranged around a longitudinal axis, the discharge vessel enclosing, in a gastight manner, a discharge space provided with an ionizable filling, the discharge vessel having a first and a second mutually opposed neck-shaped portion through which a first and a second current supply conductor, respectively, extend to a pair of electrodes arranged in the discharge space, a lamp base of electrically insulating material supporting the discharge vessel by means of the first and second current supply conductors, the lamp base also supporting the outer envelope, the outer envelope enclosing the first and second current supply conductors, the outer envelope being connected to the lamp base in a gas-tight manner.
- the current supply conductors are well protected against oxidation in that the atmosphere in the outer envelope or outer bulb is controlled.
- controlling the atmosphere in the outer envelope is meant evacuating the outer envelope or providing an air-tight environment which in particular is free from oxidizing agents, like oxygen.
- controlling the atmosphere in the outer envelope does not exclude that means are provided in the outer envelope to control the atmosphere in the outer envelope.
- the outer envelope is filled with nitrogen gas comprising, for instance, a small percentage of oxygen. Controlling the oxidation of the current supply conductors enables the current supply conductors to be positioned relatively close to the discharge vessel.
- press seals and/or tipped-off (quartz) tubulations are provided to reduce oxidation of the current supply conductors, leading to a bulky and lengthy high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the press seal and current supply conductors are preferably dimensioned such as to attain the desired life by operation in air.
- Niobium of ceramic discharge vessels employing niobium current supply conductors oxidizes very quickly at the operating temperatures of the discharge vessel, leading to a very limited life span of the high- pressure discharge lamp.
- Controlling the atmosphere in the outer envelope has the result that a simplified and compact high-pressure discharge lamp can be made.
- the length of the high-pressure discharge lamp can be significantly reduced.
- a preferred embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp is characterized in that the ratio of the distance d e between to electrodes to the height hdi of the high-pressure discharge lamp along the longitudinal axis complies with:
- the height h d i of the high- pressure discharge lamp along the longitudinal axis can be smaller than approximately 50 mm for a distance d e between the electrodes ranging from approximately 1 mm to approximately 10 mm.
- a preferred embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention is characterized in that an exhaust tube for evacuating the outer envelope is provided in the lamp base or in the outer envelope.
- an exhaust tube for evacuating the outer envelope is provided in the lamp base or in the outer envelope.
- the outer envelope can be evacuated via the exhaust tube after the discharge vessel and the outer envelope have been mounted on the lamp base of the high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the exhaust tube also forms a feed-through element to a current supply conductor of the discharge vessel of the lamp. This has the advantage of a simpler lamp construction.
- the lamp base is made from quartz glass, hard glass, soft glass, or a ceramic material.
- the lamp base is a sintered body, preferably a glass, a glass-ceramic, or a ceramic body.
- the base is colored whitish, so as to reflect extra light into usable beam angles, which increases the useful light output of the lamp effectively.
- the lamp base is in the form of a plate.
- the lamp base can be manufactured with a high dimensional accuracy. It is favorable when the lamp base is plane at its surface facing away from the discharge vessel.
- This surface may be mounted against a (lamp) holder, for example a carrier, and accordingly is a suitable surface for serving as a reference for the position of the discharge vessel.
- a (lamp) holder for example a carrier
- a preferred embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention is characterized in that the outer envelope is fastened to the lamp base by means of an enamel.
- the enamel is provided in the form of a previously shaped ring. Using a previously shaped ring largely simplifies the manufacture of the high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention has the advantage that when the lamp is in operation the discharge vessel has optically very compact virtual dimensions, which render the lamp highly suitable for use in compact luminaires.
- Current lamp families are based on a press-sealed quartz capsule, which can then be incorporated in reflectors. Further use of the capsule as a building block, for example in a lamp for use in open fixtures, is not possible. This is a drawback, as good positioning of the capsule within other lamp outlines is crucial for guaranteeing performance.
- the discharge lamp is very suitable for use in a reflector.
- the invention also relates to an assembly of a high-pressure discharge lamp and a reflector.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention forms a building block for use in a reflector.
- the reflector forms the outer envelope.
- the lamp base of the high-pressure discharge lamp supports the reflector.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp is sealed in a gastight manner to the lamp base.
- the reflector encloses the first and second current supply conductors and the reflector is connected to the lamp base in a gas-tight manner.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp forms a building block of the assembly.
- the relatively high positioning accuracy of the arc tube with respect to the base plate and the good dimensional reproducibility of the base plate allow its use in assemblies with different click-fit connections.

- Fig. 4 shows a further alternative embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention
- Fig. 5 shows a still further alternative embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention
- Fig. 6 shows an embodiment of an assembly of a high-pressure discharge lamp in a reflector.
- FIG 1A shows an artist's impression of a high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention.
- Figure IB diagrammatically shows a cross-section of the high- pressure discharge lamp as shown in figure 1A.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp comprises a discharge vessel 11 arranged around a longitudinal axis 22.
- the discharge vessel 11 encloses, in a gastight manner, a discharge space 13 provided with an ionizable filling comprising mercury, a metal halide, and a rare gas.
- the discharge vessel 11 has a first neck-shaped portion 2 and a second, opposed neck-shaped portion 3, through which portions a first current supply conductor 4 and a second current supply conductor 5, respectively, extend to a pair of electrodes 6, 7, which electrodes 6, 7 are arranged in the discharge space 13.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp is further provided with a lamp base 8 made from an electrically insulating material.
- the lamp base 8 supports the discharge vessel 11 by means of the first and second current supply conductors 4, 5.
- the lamp base 8 also supports an outer bulb or an outer envelope 1.
- the lamp base 8 is provided with a first contact member 14 which is connected to the first current supply conductor 4.
- the lamp base 8 is provided with a second contact member 15 connected to the second supply conductor 5 via a connection conductor 16 running alongside the discharge vessel 11.
- At least one contact member is formed by a feed-through tube in the lamp base, allowing one of the current supply conductors to be fastened in said feed-through tube.
- two feed-through tubes may be provided in the lamp base. The fastening in these feed-through tubes may be done by resistance, laser welding, or crimping.
- An advantage of the use of feed-through tubes instead of the contact members is a greater freedom of positioning of the discharge vessel on the longitudinal axis of the high-pressure discharge lamp. This may further improve the precise positioning of the discharge vessel in the outer envelope of the high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the outer envelope 1 is connected to the lamp base
- the current supply conductors 4, 5 are well protected against oxidation in that the atmosphere in the outer envelope is controlled. Preventing oxidation of the current supply conductors 4, 5 has the result that the current supply conductors 4, 5 can be positioned relatively close to the discharge vessel 11. Press seals and/or tipped-off (quartz) tabulations can be avoided in that the atmosphere in the outer envelope is controlled, resulting in a simplified and compact high-pressure discharge lamp.
- an exhaust tube 18 for evacuating the outer envelope 1 is provided in the lamp base 8. In this manner, the outer envelope 1 can be evacuated via the exhaust tube 18 after the discharge vessel 11 and the outer envelope 1 have been mounted on the lamp base 8 of the high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the exhaust tube 18 is sealed off.
- a getter is used inside the outer envelope, for instance a mix of water/hydrogen/oxygen to absorbe impurities.
- the exhaust tube 18 in the lamp base 8 is made from a metal or from a NiFeCr alloy like vacovit.
- the lamp base 8 is preferably made from quartz glass, hard glass, soft glass, glass-ceramic, or a ceramic material.
- the lamp base 8 is provided as a sintered body, preferably a sintered ceramic body.
- the lamp base 8 is in the form of a plate.
- the lamp base 8 can be manufactured with a high dimensional accuracy.
- the lamp base 8 has the additional advantage that it can be made in a light color, for example white or a pale grey. By employing a material with a light color it is achieved that light emitted by the discharge vessel 11 will be reflected into usable beam angles, thereby increasing the efficiency of the luminaire or the total efficiency of the high-pressure discharge lamp assembly. It is prevented thereby that the light incident on the lamp base 8 is lost to the light beam which may be formed by means of a reflector.
- the lamp base 8 has a (flat) plane at its surface facing away from the discharge vessel 11. This surface may be mounted against a (lamp) holder, for example a carrier, for instance a reflector, and accordingly is a suitable surface for serving as a reference for the position of the discharge vessel 11.
- the surface of the lamp base 8 facing the discharge vessel has a central elevation which serves to center the discharge vessel 11 and the enamel ring with respect to the lamp base 8 during the manufacture of the high- pressure discharge lamp.
- the outer envelope 1 is made from quartz glass, hard glass or soft glass.
- the outer envelope 1 is, preferably, fastened to the lamp base 8 by means of an enamel of (glass) frit. It is favorable when the enamel is provided in the form of a previously shaped ring. The use of such a previously shaped ring largely improves the accuracy of the positioning of the discharge vessel 11 during the manufacture of the high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the choice of the enamel depends on the material of the outer envelope 1 and on the material of the lamp base 8. In the example of figures 1A and IB, a substantially cylindrical outer envelope
- Figure 2 shows an alternative embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention.
- a substantially spherical outer envelope 1 is provided.
- Figure 3 shows a further alternative embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention.
- Two lamp bases 8, 8' are provided between a substantially cylindrical outer envelope 1.
- the exhaust tube 18 is, preferably, provided in only one of the lamp bases 8.
- the discharge vessel 11 is made from a ceramic material.
- a sealed exhaust tube 18' is provided in the outer envelope 1.
- Providing a glass or quartz tubulation in the outer envelope means that an exhaust tube in the lamp base can be dispensed with.
- Figure 4 shows yet another alternative embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention in which the discharge vessel 11 is made from quartz.
- the ionizable filling in the discharge space comprises mercury, a metal halide, and a rare gas.
- part of the outer envelope is provided in a substantially spherical form.
- the exhaust tube 18 at the same time forms a feed-through tube to which the current conductor 14 is fastened.
- the control of the atmosphere in the outer envelope means that a simplified and compact high-pressure discharge lamp can be made.
- the length of the high- pressure discharge lamp can be significantly reduced.
- a preferred embodiment of the high-pressure discharge lamp is characterized in that the ratio of the distance d e between the electrodes to the height h d i of the high-pressure discharge lamp along the longitudinal axis complies with: d 0.02 ⁇ - 2 - ⁇ 0.2
- a simplified lamp design which can be used as a building block for a family of products based on a modular capsule lamp.
- the discharge vessel 11 is supported on the current supply conductors 4, 5 that are fixedly connected to the base plate 8.
- the discharge vessel 11 as well as the current supply conductors 4, 5 are positioned in the outer envelope 1, which is kept under a controlled atmosphere. Elimination of the press seals and and/or tipped-off (quartz) tubulations results in a compact high-pressure discharge lamp.
- the height h ⁇ u of the high-pressure discharge lamp is equal to or less than 50 mm, preferably less than 40 mm.
- FIG. 6 schematically shows an embodiment of an assembly of a high-pressure discharge lamp in a reflector 30 arranged around the longitudinal axis 22.
- the reflector 30 comprises a reflecting surface 34 on a (glass) support.
- the reflector 30 is provided with a transparent cover plate 33.
- figure 6 shows an adapter 25.
- the rubber ring 31 seals off the opening 26 between the adapter 25 and the reflector 30 in a gastight manner.
- the adapter 25 is provided with standardized contact terminals 27, 28 which are passed through the bottom plate 29 of the adapter 25 in a gastight manner and are connected to respective further contact members 14', 15' of the lamp cap 10.
- the further contact members 14', 15' are in electrical contact with the first and second contact members 14, 15, respectively.
- the reflector 30 forms the outer envelope which is supported by the lamp base 8, for instance by an enamel of (glass) frit.
- an exhaust tube 18 for evacuating the interior of the reflector 30 comprising the high-pressure discharge lamp is provided in the lamp base 8
- the reflector 30 can be evacuated via the exhaust tube 18 after the discharge vessel 11 provided on the lamp base 8 has been mounted in the reflector 30.
- the exhaust tube 18 is sealed off.
- a getter is used inside the reflector 30, for instance a mix of water/hydrogen/oxygen to absorbe impurities. It is advantageous if the exhaust tube 18 in the lamp base 8 is made from a metal or from a NiFeCr alloy.
- the discharge vessel including an outer envelope is mounted in the reflector.
- the fact that the discharge vessel has its own environmental conditions, provides a greater freedom in designing the reflector. It is visible in the drawing of figure 6 that the lamp base 8 falls substantially entirely within a cone 36 which has its apex 35 in the center of the discharge vessel 11. Preferably, the apex angle is approximately 25.
- the light originating from the high-pressure discharge lamp can reach the reflecting surface 34 substantially without obstruction and is reflected there at least substantially axially in the direction of the transparent cover plate 33.
- the cover plate is dome-shaped.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention can be given a very small constructional height, reflectors in which the discharge lamp is accommodated may be comparatively flat.
- the discharge vessel of a 35 W high-pressure discharge lamp may have, for example, a dimension along the longitudinal axis 22 of less than 35 mm from the outside of the lamp base 8 to the top of the discharge vessel 11. If the length of the neck-shaped portions 2, 3 is reduced or the neck-shaped portions are absent, the dimension along the longitudinal axis 22 can be considerably smaller.
- the high-pressure discharge lamp forms a "building block" of the assembly.
- the positioning accuracy of the arc tube with respect to the base plate can be extremely high and is typically better than 0.25 mm.
- the very high dimensional reproducibility of the base plate 8 allows its use in assemblies with different click-fit connections: a dichroic or a so-called PAR16/20 reflector, fixing in the neck within a metal ring; a high-pressure discharge lamp with integrated ballast in the neck of a relatively large reflector (such as, for example, a so-called PAR 35).
- the added advantage is the use of soldered connections to a printed circuit board
